It is said that Liao, a master of Feng Shui in Jiangxi, chose the Ming Tombs as the site of the Ming Tombs. As the royal feng shui, the feng shui of the tombs chosen by the Ming Tombs is naturally top-notch. What is the overall evaluation of its geomantic omen? The mountains are coming from the south, and the momentum is like a dragon. East toe in Lulong, west ridge in Taihang; Sitting on the yellow flower in the back (referring to huanghua town), facing the Shenjing; There is an old house called Kangjiazhuang. It can accommodate millions of people and suddenly open.
The terrain where the Ming Tombs are located is surrounded by mountains in the north, east and west, and the south is open and spacious. The mountain stream flows southeast after merging with the Yulingqian River. In particular, Changling is located in the context. There are two hills on both sides of Shinto 6 kilometers in front of the mausoleum. Mangshan Mountain in the east forms Longshan Mountain, and Huyu Mountain in the west serves as Tiger Mountain.

(3) the legend of the country
According to legend, in those days, Ming took Yao and others from the Ming Tombs Reservoir to the north. Along the way, Feng Shui gentlemen showed their magical powers, and lost books to point out that Mangshan and Hushan are dragons and tigers, which can play the role of guarding the mausoleum. Ming nodded repeatedly, but only Yao said nothing. Ming asked Yao:? You see, this land can bury my descendants for generations. ?
Hearing this, Yao found this sentence very meaningful. So he said:? Here, the mountains are clear and the waters are wide, and the wind is gathering. Can you bury the great-grandson of the emperor? It is said that this is a code word to tell Chengzu that when Emperor Chongzhen, the grandson of Emperor Wanli, arrives, the Ming Dynasty will perish. Of course, Ming Chengzu couldn't understand this code word, but he ordered an 80-mile enclosure, changed Huangtu Mountain to Tianshou Mountain, and broke ground to repair the mausoleum.
To say that Feng Shui is impeccable, since the emperor was buried in the Ming Tombs, twelve emperors have been buried in the Ming Tombs one after another. According to statistics, among the twelve emperors buried, only Emperor Sejong lived to be 60 years old, Emperor Zongshen lived to be 58 years old, Emperor Xianzong lived to be 4 1 year old, and the other nine emperors did not live to be 40 years old. People who live less than 60 years old are short-lived, because 60 years is a cycle, so does this mean that there are also great problems in the Feng Shui of the Ming Tombs? In addition, no matter how good the feng shui of the Ming Tombs is, there is no guarantee that the mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty will last forever. After all, water can carry a boat and overturn it, and the people are an important aspect that determines the fate of a country.
